While you'd have to say there's some merit in the principle - given that globalisation trends are a big part of what drives Brexit/right-wing populism, and nowadays there's obviously a strong environmental case for producing as much as possible at home - if what Redwood says had ever been the true aim of Brexit then they'd have started working on this stuff the day after the referendum. Since the beautiful British countryside doesn't appear to have been turned into vast swathes of polytunnels and greenhouses like you see when you travel between cities in the Netherlands, however, I can only assume this to be yet more bullshit to appease gullible fantasists.

I wouldn't feel guilty about it at all. As PaddockLad says, rollout is going to be a lottery at best and a shitshow at worst, plus every person vaccinated has a positive knock-on effect on the general transmission picture whoever it is.

Not a hint of anyone taking part in it around here, for what it's worth, and we went relatively big for the original one (in a "decent amount of sound reverberating around the new builds near the station" way, not a "middle-class cunts doing the fucking conga and pretending they like their neighbours" way).

That tweet inevitably has the usual barrage of reply guys saying "iT's ONly beCAuSE wE Test MorE", as if other places being fucked too makes it perfectly okay that we are.

Something to help the lockdown fly by:

We're currently destroying the first two rounds of tonight's Only Connect. Teams of nerds scattering like bowling pins in our wake.

Cool that they left the announcement until after many of the affected kids will have already gone to bed. If there's one thing little kids thrive on more than constantly shifting goalposts, it's finding out that the goalposts have shifted as the first thing when they wake up in the morning.

I think the LD vote in any poll of a few thousand people is so negligible as to allow fluctutations to be disregarded.
